Some investors are buying on weakness, while others are waiting for more clarity on inflation, geopolitical tensions, and corporate earnings. The coming week's earnings from some of the market's biggest names could offer support to stocks or further exacerbate the selloff. Investors will also focus on Friday's release of the monthly Personal Consumption Expenditures Price index, a crucial piece of inflation data before the Fed's April 30-May 1 meeting.

updates: The S&P 500 index has reached the historic 5,000-point milestone, driven by strong corporate earnings from major companies such as Meta, Amazon, Netflix, and Microsoft. Over half of the S&P 500 companies have reported earnings, with 80.6% surpassing expectations. This positive performance has instilled confidence in the market, with Wall Street professionals like George Ball and Jason R. Escamilla expressing optimism about the milestone. They see it as a reflection of corporate America's earnings power and the overall strength of the economy. The Federal Reserve's dovish stance and positive economic indicators have contributed to the market's resilience and adaptability. Jobless claims fell more than expected, indicating a resilient economy. The S&P 500 energy sector rose 0.7% due to higher crude prices. New York Community Bancorp lost 4.2% after appointing a new executive chairman. Arm's stock soared 56.6% after forecasting strong sales and profit. PayPal dropped 11.4% after a flat growth forecast. Ralph Lauren gained 14.7% and Under Armour raised its profit forecast. Walt Disney gained 11.9% after reporting strong profits and announcing plans for an ESPN streaming service. Spirit Airlines expects positive cash flow in Q2. The S&P index recorded 48 new 52-week highs and four new lows, while the Nasdaq recorded 100 new highs and 75 new lows. Despite the milestone, experts advise investors to refrain from trying to time the market and instead focus on long-term investment strategies. They recommend putting new money to work in the stock market, as they believe the rally will continue. For the first time in history, the S&P 500 is above 5,000. The S&P 500 opened over the milestone mark at the opening bell on Friday. Investors are feeling optimistic that we have sidestepped a recession. The Federal Reserve is getting close to executing a so-called 'soft landing' for the U.S. economy. The S&P 500 is up more than 5% so far this year. Lower interest rates will juice the economy further. Wall Street has a fondness for round numbers, and investors see these 'millennial levels' as key milestones. Investors believe policymakers are comfortable enough with the progress they’ve made and will soon start cutting interest rates. Hundreds of companies have updated Wall Street in recent days on their financial performance, and many of them performed better in the final three months of 2023 than analysts expected. A group of stocks nicknamed 'The Magnificent Seven' accounted for most of the broader market’s gains. Year to date, shares of Nvidia are up about 45%. Most of these companies are in the communication services and information technology sectors. It took 34 months for the S&P 500 to go from 4,000 to 5,000. This rally needs to broaden to continue moving higher.

Bets the Fed will begin cutting interest rates sooner than expected have fueled a surge in U.S. equities, which received a tailwind from a rapid decline in Treasury yields. While the Fed is expected to keep rates steady on Wednesday for a third straight meeting, investors will watch for signs from policymakers that confirm the market's view for rate cuts as early as March 2024. The federal funds futures market on Friday was pricing in a 46% chance of a cut at the Fed's March meeting, and a nearly 80% chance of a cut in May, according to the CME FedWatch tool.

updates: The S&P 500 has risen nearly 20% in 2023, fueled by bets that the Fed will begin cutting interest rates sooner than expected. Some investors believe the rise in stocks has left markets vulnerable to reversals if consumer prices do not keep cooling or if the Fed is less dovish than expected. The S&P 500 rose 0.2% this week, marking its sixth-straight weekly increase and reaching its highest closing level since March 2022. The Wells Fargo Investment Institute has a 2024 price target for the S&P 500 of about 4,700, or about 2% above current levels. Investors will watch for signs from the Fed that confirm the market's view for rate cuts as early as March 2024. The federal funds futures market is pricing in a 46% chance of a rate cut in March and a nearly 80% chance of a cut in May. While many investors believe stocks can continue rising, a hotter-than-expected consumer price data could drive a short-term pullback.

updates: The Federal Reserve's last monetary policy meeting of 2023 and a U.S. inflation report in the coming days will test the year-end rally in U.S. stocks. The rally has been fueled by bets that the Fed will begin cutting interest rates sooner than expected. However, some investors believe that the rise in stocks has made the market more vulnerable to reversals if consumer prices do not continue to cool or if the Fed is less dovish than expected. The S&P 500 has experienced significant gains in 2023, but there is potential for downside as it nears the top of its trading range. Investors will be watching for signs from the Fed that confirm the market's expectation for rate cuts as early as March 2024. The federal funds futures market is currently pricing in a 46% chance of a rate cut in March and an almost 80% chance of a cut in May. Despite these uncertainties, many investors believe that stocks can continue to rise in the coming months, with the S&P 500 just 4% away from reaching a new all-time high.

A hotter-than-expected consumer price data could drive a short-term pullback. Investors will weigh the latest CPI data against recent numbers showing economic softening.
